What a joke. These politicians want to control every aspect of our lives.
Your comments is a joke.
@Sam Chiu your momma is a joke bro… thats being nice too
What are you on about? Do you think there will be a plastic committee watching your every move or something?
BS.
The revolution has begun
Use organic, biodegradable materials like bamboo fibers, leave fibers, etc.
Hahaha during a “pandemic”… where single use plastics are essential apparently lol
A lot of stores banned reusable bags and even offered plastic bags for free and waived the “eco fees” for a while. Just another way in which China screwed the planet. 😒
Plastic straws make up like 0.00014% of plastics in the ocean though
That’s 0.00014% down. Any progress is progress.
& plastic is a clean-burning fuel. PhysOrg dot com. a clean-burning gas, no less
All that plastic comes from other countries. It floats here and deposited on our Beaches. Are we going to go back to Flintstones.
No, it does NOT all come from other countries.
What about the plastic that does come from Canada?

Cue the whiny whiners whining about this as if it’ll have any tangible impact on their lives. 🙄 You crying crybabies cried about the penny being discontinued too, and yet, you somehow managed to survive. ¬_¬
You need to ask, “why is any of it going to landfill?… the technology is outdated at the recycling centers. so I guess the easy way is to scrap all of it instead of fixing the infrastructure problem…. even though they just invested billions more
The chemical run off from pesticides at golf courses is what’s ruining the eco system… citizens are banned from using pesticides but golf courses are exempt….why are they exempt? Pesticides are bad right? There should be no exemption…
About recycling… why can’t toronto recycle most plastics? Infrastfucture… how about fixing that
They will use paper instead, and it’s even worse for the environment. These liberals don’t have solutions for anything, they only screw thing up!
ELECTION PLEASE
I guess we’ll just have to start drinking water from those water bottles or water those things water boxes things
*meanwhile, plastic has been converted into a 100% clean-burning fuel since 2013, & in 2019 it’s now a rocket fuel*

every poor country littered with plastic and all the oceans filled with it are all now gold mines for possible fuel collection.
I wonder why (even after I’ve sent the news the direct sources) nothing is done about it…(coughing big Oil) even in the fear campaign of “global warming”
